Museum of History
The museum of history cares for, showcases, and interprets the authentic pieces of Ivaylovrad and Rhodope history. It is housed in a picturesque white building – a former public bath, restored by the local municipality in 2009. It is surrounded by a beautiful garden - a nice place to relax.
The museum's exhibitions bring Bulgarian heritage to life and offer a wonderful cultural experience to the public.
Visiting the museum can be combined with another interesting building - the house of the Paskalev family (Paskaleva kashta). This one is well preserved old-style Bulgarian house which was a property of the rich Ivaylovgrad family Paskalevi. Their ancesters left the house as a cultural monument to the local municipality to showcase to the visitors the traditional way of Bulgarian living some 100 years ago.
